tmtes Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Just a question.....can sea water kill mold? I was just wondering because we collected a large group sea shells and placed them in a large cookie jar in the late 90s and I look at them and realize no mold or anything growing on these shells all these years later.?? Also, the sandy storm on homes.....was it sea water that caused the mold on many homes or was it from other water? Edited June 23, 2014 by tmtes
Fuzzwood Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Mole is a creature that digs tunnels in the ground. I believe the word you are looking for is mold.
Endy0816 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Seawater inhibits the growth of mold, though this can also be caused by the mold lacking the resources necessary to grow.
tmtes Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) lol sorry I fixed edited it....mold .....so it does inhibit ....because my shells look as pretty as the days we collected them in that jar....its amazing.. Now all the mold in the homes from storm Sandy was most likely from either sewer or rain water.....not the ocean.......I thought that ocean water would kill any type of critter or bad bacteria .....thank you ....I did try to Google it.......Google only goes so far Edited June 23, 2014 by tmtes
